  1. Hey Draconus I wanted to give a HUGE shoutout and thank you. It worked. I finished the video and tested the fire ext test light in the F18 and when I toggled the switch in game my lef on the board lit up : ) . Now the fun starts in testing out what I can do. Man what a relief I never would have found that file you linked for me. Thank you again and have a great weekend. Tracer
  2. Hi everyone, I am trying to get my arduino to work with dcs bios but when I get to the point in the video where he says to download bort, there is no exe (release) Did this stop being supported? ANd if so can someone tell me where I can get the control reference info? All I can see is the documentation where it says to open the web interface but I cant find the web interface. Sorry for the dumb question, I suffer from PTSD and when I follow instructions or a video and it doesnt work, the brain kind of locks up. Thanks for any help And I hope this isnt necro posting, the video is kind of new and if there is a problem I am trying to highlight it and find a solution for others. Tracer
  3. Hey Sedenion, thanks so much for the fast reply and help. I just finished a download and installed it manually as you suggested. It failed about 8 times on me during the download but I was able to start it again and it started where it left off. What a stress reducer for someone like me on wireless. I hope this helps someone else in the same situation. Thank you again Tracer
  4. I was hoping I could ask for some help here with Open Mod Manager. I used to run OVGME when I lived in the city with hi speed internet and it worked great, no issues. Then I moved to the country an hour away from the nearest city. I am running on a cell tower basically. And when I tried to use OVGME I would partially download the file and then it would fail. I would restart and it would start over from the beginning again. I would have to do this many many times to complete and sometimes I just gave up because it was taking way too long to do. I got a url to the files and downloaded to my pc and had no issue using that method. Now we are using this new version and I am getting the same issue, partial file error then have to restart from the beginning. Is there anyway that I can select something to restart from the point the download failed? Rather than at the beginning? And is there a way to manually update? I tried but was unable to see a method. Thanks for any help Tracer
  5. No worries but great news. Annoying as hell. But thanks for the update appreciate it. Hopefully it comes with the clouds patch : ) . GG
  6. Hey Atomic if you get a solution could you post it? I gave up trying to fix this.
  7. I have the same problem as well. I made sure everything was in imperial but the map still gives me elev etc in meters. Its really annoying.
  8. I found the same thing. Any attack from the rear is suicide unless you attack from a long distance and break away quick. I have been practicing attacking the JU88's but have to do it with their weapons at 0 otherwise I just see constant flashes from being hit then my hud goes dead and worse. I Know I am working on my accuracy but I can never take down a bomber in one pass, the plane is too unstable with my setup. Getting better getting hits but I couldn't imagine going up against one shooting back LOL. I watched them in slow motion a few times and they are deadly accurate, the top gunner and especially the bottom. At close range they do not miss. Still will keep practicing and ramp up the realism eventually.
  9. I'm having wonky issues intermittently as well. Sometimes the AS indicator stays stuck at 250 knots when downwind. Altimeter sometimes does not work, it shows me as way way low when I should be at 1,000' and it looks about 200'. But I get it, its early still, over all very happy. Constantly trimming to be able to hit anything in the air : ) but thats pretty realistic, an untrimmed AC is a handful
  10. Actually it will not work at all for me, I just checked. I mapped it to my hotas but no joy then I used the key commands and nothing. I can get the horizon bar to move up and down no problem , but am only able to cage uncage using the mouse and clicking. Just wanted to add
  11. Same here. I am coming back off a break and sometimes I need to turn the FLIR off then on again in order to get it to slew after a cage uncage. I also have to press the right sensor switch twice after an uncage or it wont move at all. THen if I mess with the VVSLV btn is when it freezes and I need to turn off then on and it works again. But not like it used to, it used to be so easy to use now I have to keep pushing Sensor control sw right to cycle back to OPR Does anyone know if there is documentation explaining how the litening system is supposed to work now?
  12. It would be nice that if you're in a flight that the flight leader makes the calls for the flight, unless you leave the flight and become a singleton. But you should still make the ball call as a single ship.
  13. Love the log book idea.
  14. I didn't see this posted so thought I would add it here. After I land and want to launch again I open the comms menu and call for groundcrew, F8 and have to choose to launch. I am unable to use the keyboard to do this, F7 I believe. Every time I hit F7 it does nothing but if I use the mouse to select the Launch in the comms menu it works. I am using the F18 module if that matters.
  15. No, for someone like me I cannot see the ball until I am almost landing so I just never used it. I looked for other visual references. So for someone with poor vision and or a poor resolution monitor its a great aid. Its on the same side as the meatball so for me it lets me finally use the system as intended. GJ and much thanks
